350 im putting in

ok my 350 is being built. hopefully will get it this weekend so i can slap it in.

rebuilt 350 with molly rings, true gears and chain, 260 cam, open valve pockets, back cut valves, and machineing and new gaskets n all that.

im going to have to run the stock manifolds and exhaust till i can get the coated hooker 2055's i want and new exhaust cat back. i hate to do it but my understanding is it wont hurt anything, just lack in performance as oppose to the latter. still dont know what im going to do about prom, but ya, just thought i'd share. and of course if i have any problems with the install i can pick your brains! o putting in a new centerforce 2 clutch and poly mounts.

correction. just talked to the guy doing the work, gonna go with some older higher performing heads. trade off is stock manifolds wont fit becuase the heads dont have the extra bolt hole. so i'll just have to wait to drive it till i can get headers. bleh
